Weight Loss Challenge Week 5 & Super Bowl Pick

Weight Loss Challenge

Current Weight: 198 lb

Starting: 214 (Jan 1)

Goal: 190 (March 3)

Net: -16 lb

Survived last weekend's debauchery of drinking, bar food, and lack of sleep-- all factors that hinder weight loss-- and still made my -2lb goal.

It's fortunate that I don't get bored eating the same thing on a daily basis. 

Typical Day consists of:

Breakfast

Scrambled Eggs (3), Plain Oatmeal (1/3c), 1% Milk (1c), 3 cups of Green Tea

AM Snack

Grilled Chicken Breast (2oz)

Lunch

Brown Rice (1c), Chicken Breast (2oz), Peas (2/3c)

PM Snack

Protein Shake (Whey, Milk, Half Banana)

Dinner

Lean Protein, Vegetables, Whole Grain Starches (~500 calories)

The day clocks in at 1900 calories, I piss like a racehorse all day, and I throw a few weights around occasionally. 

This weekend will be another eating challenge as it's the Super Bowl, but we're going to keep things light. Grilled Wings and veggie pizza on whole wheat crust (ww flour is > semolina when it comes to texture and rising, imo). 

As for who's going to win Sunday, everyone under the sun is picking the Giants (+3) and I don't blame them. They are hot, Eli and his recievers are playingn out of their skull, and their D-line can get after people, Gronk is hurt, and Pat's secondary is garbage.

But I just can't pick against Belichick and Tom "effin" Brady when they have two weeks to prepare and eveyone is calling them the underdog (even though they're favored, which is odd).

Brady gets pissed, Vince Wilfork plays the game of his life, and the Patriots win 38-33.

Sorry Buck :D
